Description
About the Role
We are looking for a visionary
Tech Lead Mobile Developer
to join as a foundational member of our client’s team. This is a unique “pioneer” opportunity: as the first dedicated mobile expert on the project, you will have full autonomy to shape the mobile landscape from the ground up.
Initially, you will be the sole technical authority for mobile, so we are looking for someone who is comfortable navigating ambiguity and making high-level architectural decisions independently. As the product scales, you will be expected to demonstrate
readiness to grow into a Team Lead role
, building, mentoring, and leading a dedicated mobile department in the near future.
Responsibilities
Lead the Mobile Strategy:
Design, build, test, and maintain high-quality native iOS and Android applications as the primary technical owner.
Architectural Ownership:
Define the mobile architecture from scratch, choosing the patterns, frameworks, and tooling for both platforms.
Cross-functional Interface:
Act as the technical bridge between mobile development and stakeholders, including Product Managers, Designers, Backend/DevOps, and Business Owners.
Project Management:
Break down product requirements into technical tasks, provide accurate estimates, and drive sprint planning and backlog refinement.
Future Mentorship:
Prepare to mentor and guide future senior and
mid-level
hires, conducting code reviews and fostering technical growth as the team expands.
Release Management:
Coordinate app store deployments (App Store & Google Play), managing release branches, versioning, and hotfix processes.
Requirements
Experience:
5+ years of overall software development experience, with a
focus specifically on native iOS and Android development.
Technical Stack:
Strong professional proficiency in
Swift & Objective-C
(iOS) and/or
Kotlin & Java
(Android), including expertise in modern architecture patterns (MVVM, VIPER, Clean Architecture, etc.).
Testing & Quality:
Proven experience with unit, integration, and UI testing using tools like XCTest, Quick/Nimble, Espresso, or similar.
DevOps & Tooling:
Familiarity with mobile CI/CD pipelines (e.g., GitHub Actions, Bitrise, Jenkins, Fastlane) and monitoring/logging tools.
Methodology:
Experience working in Agile/Scrum or Kanban environments.
Communication:
Fluent English (written and spoken) is essential for collaborating with international teams and clients.
